You may remember a few days ago when I posted about a mother who died from water intoxication. The woman drank too much water in an attempt to win a Nintendo Wii from the local radio station. Unfortunately the woman died, later last week all that were involved were fired from the radio station. In addition, the morning show the contest(Hold your Wee for a Wii) was featured on was canceled and removed from the air.
New news has surfaced that the family of the woman is suing the radio station. Although truly tragic, evidence suggests that the radio jockeys were aware of the dangers of water intoxication.

More example of people not being responsible for their own actions. This was an adult woman, mother of 3, doing something stupid. regardless of whether the dj’s knew it or not, it was her responsibility to find out about what could happen before entering the contest and understand the repercussions. everyone wants to blame some one else – makes me mad
